Ottawa House By-The-Sea Museum

Welcome to Ottawa House By The Sea You have just arrived at one of the oldest structures on the Minas Basin. With the central core of the current building dated c 1775 and containing a rare surviving example of Acadian construction, the Ottawa House is a truly unique structure. Overlooking the beach where Prince Henry Sinclair may well have visited in 1397 and where Samuel de Champlain did land in 1607, the Ottawa House has seen the history of the area unfold in plain view of its' front verandah.
